Chapter 19 The Third Miss was so angry that she jumped off a building!

In the dead of night, when all was quiet, someone sneaked downstairs to the backyard.

Du Ruoxi tiptoed to the four fruit trees, circled halfway around one of them, came to the other side of the tree, and then hurriedly picked a few fruits from the tree.

After picking them, she immediately put a few fruits into her pocket, then tiptoed out of the backyard and upstairs.

Back in her room, Du Ruoxi immediately washed a few fruits, picked one out, and popped it into her mouth.

After tasting it, Du Ruoxi's eyes brightened at a visible speed.

This taste...

"good to eat!"

"Where did Shen Baisu get such delicious fruit?"

When Du Ruoxi learned that Shen Baisu had placed the tree in the backyard, she was somewhat disgusted. However, when she saw the fruit in the backyard, she smelled its fragrance.

She kept thinking about the fragrance, and it was already late at night. She had been tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep, her mind filled with thoughts of the fruit. So she decided to secretly pick a few to try.

Surprisingly, it tasted even better than it smelled.

After finishing one, Du Ruoxi immediately grabbed another and put it in her mouth. In just a few minutes, she ate three.

She wanted to keep eating, but she was already stuffed.

So she kept two and took out her phone to take pictures and identify them.

I was thinking that I would buy a few of these trees and plant them myself.

After the identification results came out, Du Ruoxi searched through the pictures for a long time, but still couldn't find a species that was exactly the same as the red-faced fruit.

"Strange, why can't it be recognized?" Du Ruoxi frowned.

Unconvinced, she tried to identify the fruit with her phone several more times, but it failed, only identifying some similar fruits.

After trying it several times, Du Ruoxi lost her patience and angrily threw her phone onto the bed, saying, "Forget it, I'm not doing it anymore."

"Anyway, Shen Baisu has four trees, I'll ask her to send me two tomorrow."

However, given her relationship with Shen Baisu, Shen Baisu definitely wouldn't give it to her.

If she really won't give it to me...

"If she refuses to give it to me, I'll call my uncle, and he'll definitely make her give it to me."

"Boom boom boom!"

"Third Miss, Third Miss, something terrible has happened!"

It's the weekend, so there's no need to get up early, but early in the morning, there was a knock on Shen Baisu's door.

Shen Baisu opened the door, and Uncle Lin hurriedly exclaimed, "Third Miss, something terrible has happened!"

Seeing that Uncle Lin was so anxious that he could only repeat one sentence, Shen Baisu remained calm. "Miss is fine, please speak slowly."

Uncle Lin: "It's a fruit tree, all the fruit is gone! Someone stole the Red Beauty Fruit!"

Shen Baisu: ?!
Which bastard is so bold as to steal my things?
Shen Baisu didn't go downstairs, but instead strode towards the balcony at the end of the corridor.

Uncle Lin immediately followed.

The balcony at the end of the corridor overlooks the backyard. The trees that were originally laden with red berries now have only a few small, unripe fruits on two of them. The other two trees have more fruits, but significantly fewer than yesterday.

Shen Baisu felt a surge of anger rising from the top of her head, so she jumped off the balcony in a fit of rage.

Uncle Lin: !
"Ah! Third Miss!"

Uncle Lin let out a sharp cracking sound, and at the same time, his legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.

His voice drew the attention of other people on the same floor, who came out to check what was happening.

Shen Mingyu was the first to arrive. Seeing Uncle Lin sitting on the ground, Shen Mingyu immediately ran over and helped him up. "Uncle Lin? What happened to you? How did you fall down here?" "Third Miss, Third Miss!" Uncle Lin grabbed Shen Mingyu's sleeve tightly and spoke in a trembling voice.

Shen Mingyu was even more puzzled. "Uncle Lin, how come you can't even recognize people? It's me, I'm Lao Wu."

"No! I mean, the Third Miss..." Uncle Lin shook his head frantically, gripping Shen Mingyu's arm tightly as he walked towards the balcony railing. "The Third Miss jumped off the building!"

Shen Mingyu: ?!
Huh? Shen Baisu jumped off a building?

Is she so heartbroken by another man that she's contemplating suicide?
Uncle Lin: "Someone stole the Third Miss's fruit, and the Third Miss was so angry that she jumped off the building!"

"Right here, he jumped from here!"

As he spoke, Uncle Lin stretched out his hand, trembling, and pointed down from the balcony.

He closed his eyes tightly and turned his head away, afraid that if he looked down, he would see Shen Baisu's bloody and mangled appearance.

Seeing that Uncle Lin didn't seem to be joking, Shen Mingyu's expression turned serious. He quickly looked down, but...

Saw nothing.

No, that's not right. He saw that of the four trees in the backyard, two of them only had a few fruits left, and the other two trees had lost almost half of their fruit.

He also saw Shen Baisu, who was standing safely in front of four trees, seemingly saying something to them. She didn't look like someone who had jumped off a building.

"Fifth Young Master, is the Third Miss still alive?" Uncle Lin's trembling voice suddenly rang out, bringing Shen Mingyu back to his senses.

He looked at Uncle Lin and shook his head, "Don't worry, she's fine."

"Where did all the fruit in the backyard go? Oh right, you said it was stolen, who did it?"

Uncle Lin didn't reply to him. When he heard that Shen Baisu was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief and only then dared to look downstairs.

When he found Shen Baisu standing unharmed in front of the fruit tree, Uncle Lin was shocked. "She... how come she's acting like nothing happened?"

Shen Mingyu found his words strange, "She was fine to begin with."

Uncle Lin panicked, "But she just jumped from here!"

"Right here, she grabbed onto this spot and flipped herself down like this."

As he spoke, Uncle Lin grabbed the balcony railing and prepared to demonstrate for Shen Mingyu.

Shen Mingyu's brow twitched, fearing that he might accidentally fall, so he immediately pulled him back, while a hint of doubt arose in his heart.

Judging from Uncle Lin's appearance, he doesn't seem to be lying.

Could it be that he really jumped?
Right now... could it be that he's just putting on a brave face?
Thinking of this possibility, Shen Mingyu frowned. "I'll go down and take a look."

"I'll go too!" Uncle Lin immediately followed.

Meanwhile, she couldn't help but mutter to herself as she followed Shen Mingyu, "Although he looks like nothing happened, he may actually be seriously injured."

"The third young lady is definitely putting on a brave face; we need to get her to the hospital right away."

As soon as the two reached the first floor, a person suddenly appeared beside them, blocking their way. "Good morning, Brother Mingyu, Uncle Lin!"

"Good morning, Ruoxi." Shen Mingyu greeted Du Ruoxi hurriedly and then headed towards the backyard.

As for Uncle Lin, he was so worried about Shen Baisu that he had no time to pay attention to her.

Du Ruoxi didn't care. She followed behind the two of them and asked, "What are you talking about? Who's sick? Who should we take to the hospital?"

She was right next to Shen Mingyu, and Shen Mingyu couldn't pretend he hadn't heard, so he hurriedly said, "Shen Baisu jumped off a building."

Du Ruoxi: ?!
"Huh? Why did she suddenly jump off a building?" Remembering something, Du Ruoxi narrowed her eyes. "I saw online that she did it for Wan Jun..."

"It wasn't because of him! Miss San didn't jump off the building because of a man." Uncle Lin couldn't stand anyone smearing Shen Baisu, so he interrupted directly, "Someone stole her fruit, and she was so angry that she jumped off the building."
